Howell Wechsler, USBU Director
Vine is an invaluable tool for our USBU Business Development team as we work on growing FHI 360’s business in the US. It’s incredibly helpful to have so much critical information in one place!
Vine
One central place to supercharge your project lifecycle activities
Search everything, anywhere
Search is bedrock to many of the experiences we have every day. But it goes deeper than we might recognize. Search is much more than the search box and the top 10 results. Vine strives to provide trusted content with context to your search questions.
Localization Toolkit
With Vine, DPA, and Reporting Vine, we think we have the right technology pieces to supercharge & empower staff with digitization and support our localization strategy.

Staff Loves Vine
Kimberly Kane, Director, Southern Africa - ESARO
Whenever I need to remember a project’s end date, the name and contact info of the donor Point of Contact (POC), the project number or other key details about an award, I quickly pop over to Vine and can easily find it! Vine saves me lots of time and I don’t have to burden a colleague by asking them for basic award information.
